Hello everyone, long time reader first time poster. Im looking for any ideas or explanation for what I just experienced, as my searches have not turned up anyone experiencing anything similar. I'm a 29 yo female average size.
Reading up about taking opiates while on suboxone yielded only positive results, that the user was able to get high or worse case, the sub blocked the opiate and they didn't feel it. I used to be addicted to any opiate i could get my hands on, had about 5 years with them daily so i know the feeling well. I've been on sub for a few months now taking 8mg a day, 4 in the morning and 4 at night. Today I took my morning 4mg and came across a rare opportunity to buy an oxy OP 60mg. It wasn't from the most reliable source but it definitely looked like an op 60. In my old days a 60mg oxy would barely phase me, and since I've been on sub for awhile I'm guessing my tolerance is, well, not low.
Anyway i decided since I've heard the OPs are hard to snort/smoke that I would just eat it, so i crushed the whole pill up into chunks and chased them down with some juice. I figured like i read, I would either get a nice high or not feel it. But about 30 minutes later i started feeling ill, and a general dysphoria/unwell. This increased into a full blown bizarre reaction, i got an extreme hot flush with red skin and felt a pin prickly sensation all over my body, my chest got tight and i got tunnel vision and everything was blurry. My breathing became shallow and i felt like i might pass out.
I got scared so i drank some water, it was hard to swallow, and put a fan in front of myself but the feeling would not go away. It wasn't an opiate feeling, i know that feeling well, it was something else, a terrible feeling. It soon grew into a panic as i was thinking what the hell could this be, a bad mix with my sub this morning? Could that pill have not been an op 60 and i got scammed? It looked just like the pic on Google.
FINALLY the feeling dissipated, gradually over the next 2 hours. And now I'm sitting here 3 1/2 hours since i took it and feel almost back to normal, not quite. I feel a light opiate high in the background, but still just an uncomfortable, out of it, not good feeling. With a light headache. Something bizarre happened.
I'm not in the habit of being this irresponsible with mixing drugs, I've taken a few percs before while on my sub and i was just fine. Maybe the OPs have something in it im reacting bad to? I've never taken the OPs before just the old school oxys years ago. I hope I don't sound too crazy and I'm just happy that the feeling is almost gone and I'm fine, but would love to know if anyone has experienced similar or can take a guess at what happened. Definitely not going to do that again.
Thank you for reading
